I got a sample of this when purchasing my second bottle of Lipstick Rose. Unique is a word I see when describing this. Unique can be a good or bad thing. It catches your attention. Sadly, this one...

A beautiful, beautiful story on violet by Maurice Roucel. His magnolias are lovely, his irises both cold and carnal. In Insolence, his violet was so unashamed. Here, he presents a violet that is so...

Didn't like this the first few times I tried my sample, it smelled metallic and synthetic to me. But today I tried again and I am smitten. Yes it still has a floral/mineral opening but once it...

I love violets and loved this in the store... gorgeous, transparent violets, laundry and a salty skin smell that tempered the sweetness. I liked it enough to make an impulse buy, which I don't...

With Frederic Malle’s Dans Tes Bras, Maurice Roucel wanted to recreate the scent of warm, salty skin… mission accomplished! Dans Tes Bras means “in your arms” and the name suits it perfectly: it is...

I love this, it fits my skin and personality perfectly. I am 17 years old, I really love to be outside, I'd say that I'm sophisticated but I am not grown up enough to wear many of the perfumes that...

I'm not one for subtle perfume with low sillage. This is, in many ways, an overpriced skin-scent. Sometimes it deserves full marks and at other times it's held back a year. It's not really 'me' --...

It isn't overtly floral but it's a bit too sweet for me and it smells slightly soapy, which is one of my least favorite perfume notes. It is soft and elegant, sophisticated. There is nothing...

Dans tes Bras is a very strange fragrance. I can barely describe it, so please bear with me. The opening is a burst of earthy, pungent violets. It is not a crowd-pleaser, so I usually let it settle...

Having just purchased a bottle of Musc Ravageur, I was given a sample of Dans Tes Bras. Which I found to be tepid and all over the place. The copy is beautifully written and evocative of cafes...

I don't know that much about perfumes as far as the fancy lingo I just know that I like this. I got this as a sample and it is sexy. I can detect bergamont which is one of my favorite notes. ...

Eww, at first application smelled like florally animal pee. The first minute was tough! Softened with the dry down. Salty and pungent- like a closed room after a night of wild sex. A bit metallic....

A beautiful fragile, transparent violet accord - 5 lippies. Alas, somebody has smeared laundry soap (the old kind from before the era of washing powders) over the gentle flowers - subtracting 4...

I must give this 5 lippies. And now for the story... I got a sample and spritzed a little and got nothing I couldn't make heads or tails of. I swapped it away. But I kept reading on the board...

Dans tes Bras starts off very smooth and soft and sweet; actually in some ways the lightly powdered violet and (to a lesser degree) iris remind me a bit of a couple other Frederic Malle fragrances...
